The transcriptional regulation by the nuclear receptor NHR-25 in \kur{Caenorhabditis elegans}
MERGLOVÁ, Linda
NHR-25 is a one of few conserved nuclear receptors in C. elegans and its family is involved in many developmental processes not only in the worm but also in flies, fish, mice and humans. Yet, the cellular mechanism of the action of this gene family is poorly understood. In C. elegans, it is likely to function as a transcription factor but its direct target gene has not been identified to date. In this study, I utilized the defined NHR-25 binding (target) sequence and GFP as a marker to visualize a possibility that NHR-25 regulates transcription of other gene(s) in vivo. I have also tried the "candidate approach" of two genes utilizing existing transgenic worm strains carrying promoter::GFP fusion transgenes expressed in epithelial cells to see if those genes can be regulated by NHR-25. According to the results it seems, that there could be an interaction between one of these genes and nhr-25 and that NHR-25 can play some role in endocytosis.
